Are you looking for a low-key, endlessly affectionate companion to fill your home with warmth and love? Look no further than Little Bear!

This Chihuahua-Pomeranian mix is the definition of a gentle soul. Little Bear spent the first seven years of his life in a loving home. Through no fault of his own (a new puppy had an accident indoors and poor Little Bear was unfairly blamed!), he is now looking for a fresh start and a soft place to land. He is a clean, well-mannered boy who has never had accidents in the house, and he is ready to claim his rightful spot as the king of your couch.

What Makes Little Bear So Special? The Ultimate Couch Potato: With a lovely low energy level, Little Bear's favorite hobbies include relaxing by the window, soaking up the rays while sunbathing, and getting all the love you have to offer.

Social Butterfly: Little Bear is a dream when it comes to social skills! He gets along wonderfully with women, men, children, and other dogs.

Dream Houseguest: He is fully house-trained and crate-trained, does not destroy things, rides like a gentleman in the car, and is a quiet boy who rarely barks.

Apartment & City Approved: Because he doesn't need a yard and loves a cozy indoor lifestyle, he would thrive just as happily in an apartment as he would in a house.

Quirks: He is a known flight risk, so he will need a mindful family who watches the doors so he doesn't slip out on an adventure. He also loves his treats!

Little Bear is looking for a devoted family who understands that older dogs make the absolute best companions. Whether you live in a bustling family home with kids and dogs or a quiet apartment looking for a loyal shadow, Little Bear will fit right in. If you are ready to give this sweet, treat-loving boy the second chance he deserves, Little Bear is ready to love you back for a lifetime!
